Sherri L. Smith
Sherri L. Smith is a tech and games journalist with a passion for reporting on and reviewing the latest and greatest the tech world has to offer with a lot of flair and just a little snark. Over the course of her 15-year career, Sherri has reviewed everything from laptops to mobile hotspots to VR headsets and $10K smartphones. She also holds the distinction of being the first Black woman editor in chief of a major tech publication, serving as Laptop Mag’s EIC for three years.
An avid gamer, audiophile and lover of extra-large phones and super-fast gaming laptops, she’s considered an expert in her field and made appearances on CNN, Fox News, Cheddar and numerous panels discussing the joys and pitfalls of tech and gaming. Things that make her happy (aside from a good bourbon or scotch) include gaming hardware and software, premium tech, all things audio as well as virtual, augmented and mixed reality and audio. The way some people love sneakers and heels is the way that she loves headphones. As she loves to say, “You can't have just one pair.”
Outside of that, she’s a fan of power, innovation and straight-up ostentatiousness. She is a premium tech geek in all its forms and as a home cook, she’s a sucker for a good kitchen gadget including sous vide, smokers, pizza grills, you name it, she’s bought at least one.
All in all, she’s passionate about reviewing and helping you find your next great gadget.
